Error 372, Print Spooler Operation Failed

Question

I have 2 remote offices logging in to a Server 2012 R2 via RDS, i'm using the Easy print redirect for printing. I've this setup for about a year, 2 days ago users started reporting they could not print from RDS. I restarted the Print Spooler Service and
resolved, then next day the first part of the day was fine then users again started to report unable to print. Now the only thing that resolves the issue is a reboot o the server. The event log reports Event ID: 372 and OpCode: Spooler Operation Failed. Anyone
have any clues??

Enable the Operational Print Service events and locate the corresponding 824 event for the failing print job. If you have the April rollup from Windows Update installed on the machine, you can enable the job name in the event
log.
